Joe, I've had the same issues mounting tires you describe. If you're using tubeless compatible rims then you should be using tubeless rim tape. Its slick and thin. Helps the bead seat better. Lubing the bead with some soapy water then pumping them up to the max pressure will sometimes get them to pop on. Also, pumping them a little then coaxing the bead into the groove can work as well.
Good luck!
